Deanna Lyrics

    O deanna
    O deanna!
    O deanna
    Sweet deanna!
    O deanna
    You know you are my friend, yeah
    O deanna
    And i ain't down here for your money
    I ain't down here for your love
    I ain't down here for your love or money
    I'm down here for your soul

    No carpet on the floor
    And the winding cloth holds many moths
    Around your ku klux furniture
    I cum of death-head in your frock
    We discuss the murder plan
    We discuss murder and the murder act
    Murder takes the wheel of your cadillac
    And death climbs in the back

    O deanna
    This is a car
    O deanna
    This is a gun
    O deanna
    And this a day number one
    O deanna
    Our little crimeworn histories
    Black and smoking christmas trees
    And honey, it ain't mystery
    Why you're a mystery to me

    We will eat out of their pantries
    And their parlours
    Ashy leaving in their beds
    And we'll unload into their heads
    On this mean season
    This little angel that i squeezin'
    She ain't been mean to me

    O deanna
    O deanna!
    O deanna
    You are my friend and my partner
    O deanna
    On this house on the hill
    O deanna
    And i ain't down here for your money
    I ain't down here for your love
    I ain't down here for your love or money
    I'm down here for your soul

    O deanna
    I am a-knocking
    O deanna
    With my toolbox and my stocking
    O deanna
    And i'll meet you on the corner
    O deanna
    Yes, you point it like a finger
    O deanna
    And squeeze its little thing
    O deanna
    Feel its kick, hear its bang
    And let no worry about its issue
    Don't worry about where its been
    And don't worry about where it hits
    Cause it just ain't yours to sin

    O deanna
    No it just ain't your to sin
    O deanna
    Sweet deanna
    O deanna
    And we ain't getting any younger
    O deanna
    And i don't intend gettin' any older
    O deanna
    The sun a hump at my shoulder
    O deanna
    O deanna!
    O deanna
    Sweet deanna
    O deanna
    And i ain't down here for your money
    I ain't down here for your love
    I ain't down here for your love of money
    I'm down here for your soul
